The thing-files named lobster_jawbone are "close enough" to work as (original) Billy Bass jaws as well. They will also work as Larry Lobster tailbones. I have since created slightly more customized files for these 3 pieces. Let me know if you need me to add them here.

The "small bass bones" are for part of the Billy Bass tail mechanism. We typically link 2 of them together with a short piece of 1/16" dowel to replicate the full piece they are replacing.

The "15 Year Anniversary Billy Bass" now being sold are smaller then the original edition, and are mechanically and electrically more akin to the original "Travis Trout" models. We haven't had to reverse engineer the internal mechanisms for those yet, But I just bought a couple hundred, so eventually I'm sure I'll have to CAD some replacement parts. :-)

Are the small bass bones for the fish's jaw bone?
